The mechanisms involved in the homogeneous perception of odorant mixtures remain largely unknown. With the aim of enhancing knowledge about blending and masking mixture perceptions, we focused on structure-odor relationships by combining the classification and pharmacophore approaches. We built a dataset of about 5000 molecules and their related odors and reduced the multidimensional space defined by 1014 fingerprints representing the structures to a tridimensional 3D space using uniform manifold approximation and projection (UMAP). The self-organizing map (SOM) classification was then performed using the 3D coordinates in the UMAP space that defined specific clusters. We explored the allocating in these clusters of the components of two aroma mixtures: a blended mixture (red cordial (RC) mixture, 6 molecules) and a masking binary mixture (whiskey-lactone (WL)). Focusing on clusters containing the components of the mixtures, we looked at the odor notes carried by the molecules belonging to these clusters and also at their structural features by pharmacophore modeling (PHASE). The obtained pharmacophore models suggest that WL and IA could have a common binding site(s) at the peripheral level, but that would be excluded for the components of RC. In vitro experiments will soon be carried out to assess these hypotheses.
